Title: Carphone Warehouse cleared out of 8GB iPhones
Post by: Simon on April 27, 2008, 20:22

The move made by O2 and Carphone Warehouse to offer Apple's 8GB iPhone for £100 less than the standard price has proved successful - in a week.  CW has no more left to sell, and O2's apparently down to the last few.

I'll still make do with my trusty Motorola M3788e which doubles as an effective weapon should I need to defend myself.   ;D

I'm not big on cell phones, but I might get use to it if i could also use it as a club.

I've always wanted one of those and an old school stand up tape hard drive.

i hate tape drives... though I've never used one of those I've used DAT tapes many times and I just can't stand them...  give me a dvd / portable hard drive any day!

Yeah, I've used a regular tape drive before and the tape degrades after awhile. Still though, ever since I watched Weird Science as a kid I've wanted a stand up tape drive.
